Graphic novels are one of my favourite genre of children’s books and as I wind up my reading duties as a Cybils Awards Round 1 judge, I look back at my personal definitive list of graphic novels for young adult readers. Lots of wonderful books, some old, some new, but something for everyone! Happy reading 🙂

P.S. To keep the list trim, I’ve included only one book from an author/illustrator (I haven’t been totally successful), so if you like a particular creator, do check out their other works at a bookshop or library near you!

NOTE: Thank you for reading my reviews! I’ll never take this website down, but in the interests of streamlining, from 1 January 2025, I’ll be posting new reviews on my writer website, www.maureentai.com, where I post lots of other bookish extras. See you there!
